Why I Didn't Finish My PADI Dive Course in Tioman Island

UPDATES: 🚨🚨 Hisham from Tioman Cabana sexually harasses girls who stop by this place (based on my own experience and a few recent Google reviews) so stay away. Warn your diver friends.
More details on this: / cpdldfzh2ig
I did get my refund and I asked for full refund after thinking back on how disgusting the situation was and I deserved more than just half a refund.
Anyway, I realise how much fun this whole vlogging thing is! You get to look back on the good times, it's like experiencing it a second time :D

    I am SSI certified open water diver and I can say that throughout my experience doing courses and dives ONLY with SSI centers in tioman I am not disappointed. SSI stands for Scuba Schools International and they are divecenter based organization which means that the centres must meet the standards and attitude set by SSI in order to be called an SSI Center. I belive other organizations such as SDI, NDL all also uphold a certain standard for their instructors before being able to teach for their brand.

    I'm also traveling alone to Tioman to take my Rescue PADI course next week. My personal advice for you to explore safer options, if you're female and traveling alone, e.g.: - Request for female instructor - Go to a diving center more reputable for its staff service

    That was an abrupt end to the video. I holidayed on Tioman in the early 90s. Loved its laid-back natural beauty.

    It depends on where you are travel from. Base on my experiences: Perhentian - White sand beaches, affordable diving course price, far from KL Tioman - More food selections, better accommodation choices with the same price, had to spend more on ferry ticket, easier to reach by car from KL.

    So sad to hear that scary thing happening to you... this is a problem with PADI they seem big and famous but they dont do shit to uphold the standards and quality of their instructors. You need a break from diving temporarily, when you return, try to find scuba courses from better agencies such as SSI, SDI, NDL, NAUI who actually monitor the quality and behaviour of instructors.

    02:04 last time I went to tioman i took the ferry at tanjung gemok jetty instead of mersing. I parked on the side of the road next to the jetty and good fortune has it that i didn't get any ticket for the 5 days it was parked. I don't recommend doing it though.
